Allison DeBona took the road less traveled—college before company—and it led to a successful ballet career. In this episode, she breaks down why she chose Indiana University, what she gained from the experience, and how the college route stacks up against full-time conservatory training. We talk about career outcomes, adjustment challenges, and shifting industry perceptions around college ballet programs. She also answers whether or not she would choose the same path again. If you're weighing college offers against trainee spots, or wondering what kind of future the college path can offer, Allison brings clarity—and candor.
If you're a college student, be sure to check out the artÉmotion Collegiate Ballet Summer Intensive that Allison and Rex Tilton run.
